The Aurora Legal AI suite has been introduced to Australia, as Consilio moves to provide Australian law firms and in-house legal teams with unprecedented control over legal data, AI use, and technology spend.
Global e-discovery, document review, flexible legal talent, and legal advisory and transformation services provider Consilio has launched its Aurora Legal AI suite in Australia, as it moves to give legal teams greater control over data, costs, and AI adoption.
Australian legal teams, the provider said in a statement, are facing a convergence of pressures, including expanded Privacy Act obligations, escalating data volumes across collaboration platforms and emerging communication tools, and growing executive scrutiny of technology costs and AI risk.
Aurora, it said, is designed to address these realities through a single, integrated platform that delivers visibility, governance, and flexibility, without sacrificing innovation.
Deployed on private Australian infrastructure, Consilio went on, Aurora provides complete data sovereignty while enabling legal teams to manage all matters, data, and AI workflows in one environment.
“By centralising legal data across matters and formats, Aurora delivers immediate insight into volumes, risk, and cost drivers, allowing teams to make informed decisions earlier and reduce downstream review expense.”
The Aurora Portal provides a unified view across all matters, platforms, and spend, enabling legal operations leaders to manage resources, track budgets, and demonstrate value to boards and executive teams.
The suite’s benefits for Australian organisations include: complete data sovereignty, predictable cost control, platform independence, defensible, expert-guided AI, and portfolio-level visibility.
Speaking about the launch, Consilio APAC and EMEA managing director Drew Macaulay said Australian legal teams need technology that balances innovation with control.
“Aurora gives clients sovereign infrastructure, predictable cost models, and defensible AI while preserving freedom of choice,” he said.
“This is a platform built to meet Australian regulatory expectations and commercial realities.”
Consilio chief technology and innovation officer Raj Chandrasekar said: “Aurora’s locally hosted AI processes data without retaining it, keeps sensitive information sovereign, and avoids replacing one form of technology lock-in with another.
“That combination of governance, flexibility, and proven AI is what Australian clients are asking for.”
